Meet CJ: The Person Behind Three Ring Wellness
I’m CJ, a veteran and the founder of Three Ring Wellness.
I believe your story deserves to be heard, without expecting your path to look like anyone else’s. My approach to wellness coaching starts with listening, exploring what matters to you, and working together toward practical changes that fit your life.

Why this work matters to me
When I returned from Afghanistan in 2012, I knew something wasn’t right, but I was hesitant to speak up. Living with PTSD and later seeking support are part of my story.
I first pursued education in health and wellness coaching before choosing to focus on leading soldiers as an NCO. Years later, I returned to wellness training with the intention of helping others.
My experience is part of what I bring to this work, but our conversations are about you. You don’t need to be a veteran, share my background, or have a perfectly defined goal to explore coaching.
Three rings. Room for your own path.
The name Three Ring Wellness grew from my tattoo, with each ring representing a different phase: See It, Work Through It, and Overcome.
In coaching, the rings give us a simple way to talk about where you are and what you want to work toward. They aren’t a deadline, a test, or a promise that progress happens in a straight line.
See It: Notice what’s happening in your life and what you’d like to change. We’ll explore your priorities, routines, and the obstacles that keep showing up.
Work Through It: Break a larger challenge into manageable steps. We’ll consider your options and choose actions that feel realistic for you.
Overcome: Recognize your progress and build on what you’ve learned. This doesn’t mean every challenge disappears; it means finding ways to move forward, adapt, and keep taking meaningful steps.
Your goals. A collaborative conversation.
You know your life in ways no one else can. My role is to listen, ask questions, and help you explore the choices available to you.
Our conversations can focus on everyday stress, life transitions, healthier habits, or finding direction and following through. Together, we’ll identify a manageable next step and make room to reflect on what is or isn’t working.
You don’t have to arrive with all the answers. We can start with a question, a goal, or simply a sense that you’d like something to change.
Practical support, with clear boundaries
Wellness coaching focuses on goals, habits, and practical steps forward. I do not use coaching to diagnose or treat medical or mental-health conditions, including PTSD.
Coaching is not therapy and is not a replacement for medical or mental-health care. If you are looking for treatment, a qualified healthcare or mental-health professional is the appropriate place to seek that support.
Let’s start with a conversation.
If you’re curious about working together, a free 15-minute discovery call is a place to start. We’ll talk briefly about what brings you here, answer your questions about coaching, and explore whether it feels like a good fit.
Bring your questions and share what you’re comfortable sharing. You don’t need to decide on a coaching package before we talk.
No payment required. No pressure to commit.
